This beautiful 1976 Westsail had been taken care of quite
well by its previous owner, but her current owner is taking this boat to a whole new level. Southbound and Colligo Marine
helped to replace all of the steel rigging with Dynex Dux. We took over 100lbs out of the rigging aloft. Imagine what that
does to the sailing characteristics of this little boat!

Masthead detail shows LED anchor light, sonic AWI and
Dux Terminators.
We are currnetly working on serving the rigging to give
it a "saltier" look and help with chafe.

Titanium mast tangs were custom made by Colligo
to fit the Dux Terminators and save additional weight. Also, titanium does not corrode!

All of the stainless hardware was powder coated
and the halyards were internalized. We replaced the sheaves with custom Delrin units. The owner, made use of the down time
in our shop to paint the spar with Awl-Grip paint. It looks great!
